    Server Description

    A balanced general-purpose virtual machine featuring dedicated multi-core processing, substantial memory capacity, and integrated local storage for enterprise workloads.

    General Purpose

    Microsoft Azure D32_v3 is a general-purpose virtual machine from the Dv3 family, powered by an Intel Xeon 8171M x86_64 processor running at 2.6 GHz. It features 32 dedicated vCPUs across 16 physical cores, 128.0 GB of RAM, and 819 GB of bundled local storage. While single-core benchmarks, such as stress-ng and Geekbench single-core tests, rank in the lower tiers, the server delivers average multi-core performance. This makes it suitable for multi-threaded workloads, including software compilation, static web serving, and database operations. The 1:4 vCPU-to-RAM ratio provides balanced resource density for general-purpose enterprise applications.

    Workload Profiles

    1.01Score
    Precomputed compound score for Cache Intensive workloads. A weighted average (geometric mean) of benchmark scores compared to their medians: score = ∏ (x_i / m_i)^(w_i / Σw). The score of 1.0 represents a synthetic baseline server with the median performance of each component benchmark; 0.5 means roughly half the performance; and 2.0 means twice the performance of that reference profile. Component weights: 50% Redis RPS (pipeline=1, SET), 20% Redis RPS (pipeline=16, SET), 10% PassMark Memory Mark (composite), 10% Memory bandwidth (read, 16 MB ~ L3), 10% PassMark single-thread CPU. Rationale for component selection: In-memory key-value store workload, mixing direct Redis performance metrics with memory speed and latency benchmarks, and single-core CPU performance profiles.
